Is yours a 6 or 5 speed, mines a 6 so im guessing yours is a 5?Manifold must have done wonders for you, unless you are michael schumacher himself!!What coileys are you thinking of getting?

henlupo Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 hi ya like the mods very much fitted the shark fin myself but reception not to good where did you fit the aerial cable.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike_M Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 (edited) Mine is fitted down the left side of the roof (looking into the boot).......The aerial with the beesting attached is not touching the roof itself, as if it does this reduces the reception.
